wj and jumpeight – thanks for your comments, as usual here I attach more
evidence of the 5 ways to wellbeing (url: http://www.neweconomics.org/sites/neweconomics.org/files/Five_Ways_to_Well-being_Evidence_1.pdf. I’ve read that paper you cited and my question is: if life satifaction is really completely equivalent to mental wellbeing(i.e. hedonic and eudimonic difference).

WJ-what brings you to the conclusion that love of learning correlates poorly with life satisfaction? Not so according to Seligman and Peterson in “Character Strengths and Virtues’ Also Csikszentmihalyi through data, suggests that love of learning supports positive experiences predisposing psychological and physical well-being. Since this list is five ways to well being, it would appear to be quite appropriately included on the list.

Hi Timothy

Agree with most of what you are saying. I’d probably chnage them around a little bit based on the way I read the research

1. Connect
2. Sleep (they missed this one – not sure why when the reserach is compelling)
3. Exercise
4. Get off your butt (zest)
5. Help people
6. Mindfulness

I’m curious about keep learning as love of learning always correlates poorly with life satisfaction.
